"I loved my time at SFU! The biggest highlight of my academic career was my final M.Sc. project. One of my regrets is that I rushed through my undergraduate and graduate degrees without budgeting time to participate in the co-op program. I feel as though I missed out on meaningful and relevant work experience. Luckily, however, my final project was a great learning experience that prepared me for my first job in the field after graduation. I wasn’t sure what path I wanted to take or what type of job I wanted to pursue after my education, so I am thankful that my project was exactly what I was looking for. My first experience doing research allowed me to gain perspective into what working in industry would be like. My final project prepared me for a lot of my day-to-day duties, which include collaborating with clinicians, cleaning and analyzing real clinical data, and drafting and contributing to manuscripts for publication. I love my job, working under the clinical development team as a biostatistician for a bioscience company. I am so grateful for my time at SFU, without which I would not have had this wonderful opportunity to be part of a company that does meaningful work in oncology research."
